***************************************

Reclaiming your space can be difficult, especially when it feels like you’re not being seen or heard. It can be tough to feel like you matter, which makes it harder to take up space in the world. However, sometimes, reclaiming your space means making small changes that help you feel seen and heard.

Healing is a journey, and it doesn’t follow a straight line. Embrace the discomfort, as it’s often part of the process. Every small act of self-recognition helps build trust with yourself, even when things feel difficult.

To heal, you must learn to take care of yourself the way you would a child—gently and with love. Acknowledge your needs and give yourself the freedom to express who you are without judgment or fear.

Ultimately, as you make small yet meaningful changes, you are not just healing—you are reclaiming the space that is truly yours. Every step you take is a reminder that you have the power to create a life where you feel seen, heard, and valued.

In this episode, I explore the concept of showing up authentically, both visually and audibly, without abandoning ourselves in the process. As I reflect on my own journey of healing, I share how I’ve learned to embrace my uniqueness, from wearing red lipstick as an act of resistance to discovering small ways to express myself. These practices allow me to be unapologetically myself, even in a world that often demands conformity. Join me as I discuss the importance of trusting our inner selves and finding ways to recognize and honor who we truly are.
